ordered Rocky boots on Dec 5th, 2016. Apprehensive due to reviews but gave them a try regardless. Their prices are really good. From Dec 5th-8th they processed my order and got them shipped out. The next day (Dec 9th) I received my order. The exact boot, exact size, and they are real and not fake like some people put in their reviews. So I don't know if I was one of the lucky ones, but I am very happy! I have already picked out another pair I want to buy :-)
